39 Years Ago, Her Dead Body Was Discovered In A Cornfield. We Finally Discovered Her Identity Today

Back on Halloween night in 1981, a horrific crime took place. A young woman was brutally murdered and left on the side of the road. The identity of the victim remained a mystery for almost four decades, despite the police apprehending and getting a confession from the killer. The murderer never disclosed the name of his victim before he passed away. For years, this unsolved case has puzzled investigators.

But now, a breakthrough has occurred. Authorities believe they have finally identified the young woman who was found in a cornfield in Georgia in 1981. It all started when a tip about the crime led to successful DNA testing.

The woman, previously referred to as “Jane Doe,” has now been identified as Cheryl Hammack, a traveling carnival worker. When her body was discovered in the cornfield, it was so badly beaten and disfigured that identification became a challenge. The autopsy report revealed that she had been brutally stabbed in the stomach and strangled to death.
